Description

These zesty burgers are bursting with flavor. Taco seasoning, peppers, and pepperjack cheese give ground beef a boost. Then the patties are served up on buns with sour cream and salsa. A fun twist on barbecued burgers!

Ingredients

2 pounds ground beef
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
4 slices pepperjack cheese
2 tablespoons salsa
2 tablespoons sour cream
6 hamburger buns

Directions

1 Preheat grill for high heat.
2 In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, taco seasoning mix, bell pepper and onion using your hands. Form into 6 patties.
3 Lightly oil the grill grate. Cook burger patties for 5 minutes per side, or until well done. Place buns cut side down onto the grill to toast during the last minute or so. Top each burger with a slice of cheese before removing from the grill. Serve burgers on toasted buns topped with salsa and sour cream.
